At first I was going to write this movie off, it started really slow, and I said to Gary, I hope this movie doesn't all take place in this one setting, I hate movies like that. Well it did, but as it went on and especially at the end it got better.

Brooke and I took Louie to the Franklin Dam to walk yesterday, he loves his walks! And we were celebrating because yesterday should have been a bad day for him, that is how the pattern has been going with this pancreatitis, every other day he feels like crap. But yesterday he ate and was acting pretty good! We have been really good about not giving him any crap to eat, he has lost 3 pounds, and hopefully he is on the road to recovery!!

I had Kali yesterday while Nicole worked. I guess I tired her out! In other news, Louie has been diagnosed with pancreatitis. He has been sick for about 2 weeks. We brought him to the vet a few days after he first got sick and they put him on antibiotics and said it was from eating too much tables food, "garbage gut" they called it. He rallied a little and then seemed to go back and forth, one good day, one bad day. So I brought him back in on Tuesday and they took blood, and Pancreatitis it is. Not what I was hoping to hear at all, but the vet says we can manage it through diet. We have to be ultra careful what he eats, low fat high fiber. And he can never have a table scrap again, unless it is a fruit or veggie. Table scraps are Louie's life, so this won't be easy. But table scraps are what got him into this predicament, and it is all our fault. :( So, anyone with small dogs (they are more prone to it) keep them at a healthy weight, and table scraps are a no-no.

Unfortunately he has to work today and won't be home until 7. So, we are going to celebrate tomorrow with a corned beef dinner, which is also late because we wanted to wait for Brooke to come home. We picked her up at the airport last night, and despite the crappy weather Florida has been having she still managed to get a little tan. Poor Gary, up at 4:45 am yesterday for an auction, out until after midnight last night trekking her from the airport, and then up at 5:45 again this morning! he will be beat tonight.

Unfortunately I finished this book around midnight last night, I say unfortunately because it was a real tearjerker at the end. And I was sniffing and sobbing, trying to be quiet because my husband had to get up at 5:45 this morning! Then I had to try and fall asleep with a stuffy nose! But it was a good book!
